A collection of Western songs with titles starting with “J”

When it comes to songs with titles that start with “J,” do any come to mind?

We don’t usually pay much attention to the first letter of a song title, so it might be hard to think of one right away.

That said, there are plenty of English words that start with “J,” like “Joy,” “Just,” “Jet,” and “Jesus.”

In this article, I’ll introduce many songs with titles that begin with “J,” regardless of era or genre.

By exploring music from a perspective you may not have tried before, you might discover some new tracks.

A track produced for the 1992 film “Juice,” also included on the album “Don’t Sweat the Technique.” It sonically captures the tension of a crime drama set in Harlem, New York, exemplifying an ideal fusion of film and hip-hop.

The brass riff sampled from Nat Adderley and the crisp breakbeats create a driving feel that’s perfect for breakin’.

Rakim’s fluid flow, rich with internal rhymes, vividly conveys street-level thrill and urgency, igniting the dance floor.

With its mid-tempo BPM range, it makes structuring combos easier and is a classic choice for dancers who want to sharpen the impact of their moves.

Just How You AreLeon Thomas

After making his mark on Broadway and in popular Nickelodeon shows, Leon Thomas has produced and written songs for major artists like SZA and Ariana Grande.

In 2024, his album “MUTT” reached No.

1 on Billboard’s R&B Albums chart, cementing his status as a solo artist.

Released in October 2025, this track is the lead single from the EP “PHOLKS,” a groovy R&B number where a funky bassline interlocks with brass.

Carrying a straightforward message about loving oneself as they are, the song deftly fuses retro funk sensibilities with modern production, brimming with an irresistible, body-moving appeal.

Just One LifetimeSting, Shaggy

Sting, a musician Britain is proud of, and Shaggy, a reggae star from Jamaica—this unexpected duo’s collaborative album 44/876 received high praise, including winning at the 61st Grammy Awards.

Among its tracks, this song is one I especially recommend.

Its breezy reggae-pop sound carries a positive message that you only live once.

Sting’s sophisticated vocals intertwine perfectly with Shaggy’s rhythmic delivery, showcasing their remarkable chemistry.

The track was also featured in FIAT’s 120th anniversary campaign.

It’s perfect for a drive or a laid-back moment, so be sure to give it a listen.

Just One TimeGalimatias

Galimatias, an electronic producer from Denmark, masterfully blends alternative R&B, downtempo, and future bass, and earned high acclaim in 2015 with Urban Flora, his collaborative EP with Alina Baraz.

This track, released in September 2025, is a lead single from his forthcoming album 20 Second Century, slated for a November release.

It unfolds a soothing soundscape of weightless electronic textures, smooth beats, and softly shimmering vocal effects.

He has said, “I never want to make the same sound twice,” and that spirit of exploration is clearly etched into this work as well.

It’s a perfect track for a mellow nighttime drive or for quietly immersing yourself in music.

This track appears on the only album by Jack Ü—the dream duo formed by two leading producers of the EDM scene, Skrillex and Diplo—titled “Skrillex and Diplo Present Jack Ü.” It features the powerful vocals of Trinidad and Tobago–born ragga soca artist Bunji Garlin, delivering a hybrid sound that fuses Caribbean soca and dancehall rhythms with EDM’s signature heavy bass.

The album won Best Dance/Electronic Album at the 2016 Grammy Awards.

Showcasing bold, genre-defying production, this track is perfect for taking the club floor to its peak or for anyone seeking a thrilling dance tune that’s a little different from the norm!

Just Like ChristmasLow

Low, a slowcore band from Duluth, Minnesota that pursued quietude and spaciousness on the 1990s indie scene.

This track comes from their EP “Christmas,” released in November 1999, by the husband-and-wife duo Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker, known for delicate harmonies and minimalist playing.

The lyrics quietly portray a disjunction between memory and reality: watching snow begin to fall as they set off from Stockholm, someone murmured, “It’s like Christmas,” but it wasn’t truly Christmas.

In contrast to a glittering sense of festivity, the sound wraps the wintry melancholy and nostalgia in a tender embrace—very much Low’s unique world.

It’s a hidden gem for those who want to feel Christmas in peace, away from the clamor, or who are seeking a different atmosphere from the usual standards.
